    No, they claimed Gill said that and then quoted him saying the opposite. :confused:

    I dont think he said the opposite though, didnt progress it is not saying it didnt happen, sound a tentative testing approach to me.

    Oh yea, I know where getting the same recycled stories in the papers but were linked with Cuadrado in a lot of them again. Apparently a bid of £27.7 million has been made. Then again the sources seem to be coming from Spain and it wouldn't be the first time they have ran with a story that wasn't true.

    What do people think? Worth the money?

    Apparently Juventus have had an offer for Udinese midfielder Roberto Pereyra accepted.

    Wonder why they need another midfielder?

    spend 20m on a striker, 1.5 on evra, 4m on sturaro, 4m on marrone still after nani, doing a Tottenham on it spending all the vidal money before vidal leaves :D

    That's fine. It doesn't sounds like it to me, but it's not really critical that we all agree on this. ;)

    Decent chance vidal wont pass a medical, might be offloading pogba or some other high value assets. Anyone know who in their squad would cover these sales?

    Anyone hazard a guess as to how Madrid midfield and attack will line up this season. Well the sitting 2 in a 4-2-3-1 if anchelotti got with that?

    The medical would bow down and crumble in fear at the mere sight of Mr. Vidal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    ......Kroos Modric......
    Bale James Ronaldo
    ......Benzy/Falcao.....

    Alonso will be phased out I'm guessing


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    What if the Vidal move is already done but Vidal wants to take his holidays.


    He won't get paid his holiday days if he dosent.

    Also gives his knew time to recover and since eddy is pure sound let's Juve spend the money so they don't get raped?

    I'd be worried about his knee crumbling, I've struggled with knee issues for 7 years, my brother has weak knees as well, dad did both his knees. We'll all done ACL at least once and torn cartilage once, sometime it's just genetic and once it goes it never heals properly.

    FG already told us Vidal doesn't like Pogba, so he'll hardly play next to him over in Evertonland.

    that is very open though, modric and kroos cant do the holding role against any top team properly imo.

    Moratta said last week or the week before that Vidal was meant to be back pre season yesterday

    Not sure if he showed up or not

    Whether he showed up or not he wont be doing much.

    He'll turn up in extra time against Galaxy. Nutmeg Keano after thundering down from the stands, still wearing his ingenius Roy Keane disguise, score an absolute thunderbastard in the top right corner of the net, tearing it clean from the posts before stripping bollock naked and showing a huge "MUFC TILL I DIE" tattoo cut in to his back.

    Paddy Cerrand will keel over, be instantly revived by Arturo and then keel again. Rooney will instantly lose 35 lbs right from his arsehole. LvG will erupt in to his patented boat dance routine and a Native American will shed a single tear.

    Because he is taking his holidays.

    He is being that annoying lady in the office who comes in with biscuit cake on her holidays to see how everyone is.


    And to say good bye.

    Pretty sure he said in his interview to the Chilevision that he was back in italy on the 28th.. another week of rumours :D

    lol.
    Arsenal want either Chris Smalling, 24, or fellow Manchester United defender Phil Jones, 22, as part of a deal which will take 28-year-old centre-back Thomas Vermaelen the other way.

    Daily Mirror.

    Haha so since the Hummels talk has faded from the papers, The Guardian have gone back to the aul Sneijder story again.
    Apparently United have tried to "woo" Sneijder into joining us. Don't claim sources but who needs them!

    I think they mean "shoo". As in, sorry Wes, we already have 18 players who can play #10.

    Pace, skill, strength, good end product. A significant upgrade on our current options. He is one of the players I'd like us most to sign and it's semi realistic that we would get him if we tried. He had a great season with Fiorentina and did quite well at the world cup.

    Hopefully the stories are true, it was reported we were considering a bid but the Hummels rumours were getting more space on the papers. Today some people are saying that a bid has been launched. Hard to tell what is a genuine source though and whats just people trying to fill up space on the papers.

    Can't see these being Ancelottis signings this has Perez writing all over it, They sign Suarez we sign James, That team would be far to open and unbalanced, Ancelotti got it spot on last year when he went 4-4-3 with Di Maria being the key to the system, I hope it doesn't work out for them, What must the likes of Isco be thinking annoying club :mad:
